How it compares in Brighton

Over the last 90 days, 205 homes sold in Brighton for a median of $454,990, about $198 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 10 days. This home is listed at $295,000, or $212 per square foot, 7% above the city median, and has been on the market 1 day. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Brighton sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.

Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $1,497 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $1,460 to $3,374 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 22.65 mills for Brighton Twp and Howell schools, plus the 1% administration fee. Michigan resets a home's taxable value the year after it sells, so the seller's bill isn't a good number to budget with. See the math.

Estimate only, 30 year fixed, includes taxes at a new owner's rate when listed. Ask us for a lender quote.
